Today, Mama is going to share her Christmas Wish List and I’m going to help. Mama is trying to keep me occupied because I was rather frisky this morning, bordering on being naughty! But don’t worry—I wasn’t NAUGHTY! Nope, I am still a real good kitty who expects lots of presents this year. 🙂 Right, Mama?
[Tanya] Errr…I don’t know. You were kind of naughty this morning.
Was not.
[T] Was to. How many times did I have to stop working because you were trying to get into the kitchen and bathroom cabinets?
Two times.
[T] More than that, MaxE.
Okay, maybe four times and one “Maximillian Emeril” was yelled. By the way, I don’t like my middle name. Why does prima donna cat’s name have to be MY middle name?
[T] Too bad, so sad. Your name is Maximillian Emeril and I’m on the verge of yelling it again. Two strikes and it could put you on the naughty list!
But I wasn’t being bad. I was searching for my Christmas presents, and I’m pretty sure you put them in those cabinets.
[T] Really?
Ummmm … hypothetically speaking, could lying earn a mostly well-behaved kitty with only the best intentions a spot on the naughty list?
[T] Yes.
Oh. Huh. Well, I thought you might have put my presents in those cabinets, and my curiosity got the best of me, so I peeked. I wasn’t intentionally being naughty so you would stop working and play with me (I totally was but don’t tell Santa Kitty Klaus, PLEASE!).
[T] So why did you have to keep looking and banging the cabinet doors?
Ummm … aren’t we supposed to talk about your wish list today, Mama? That’s what people care about. They don’t want to hear about my morning. Nope. They want to hear what you want for Christmas. MaxE wants to hear what you want for Christmas.
[T] Right. You’re one smart kitty, MaxE.
Thanks, Mama. So what is your Christmas wish this year?
[T] I wish for peace, joy and love for me, for you, for everyone. May we all wake-up every morning with a smile, grateful to be here and sharing our talents with the world. To laugh, to smile, to give, to love with ease and without expectation. For myself personally, I want 2014 to be a year of intentional living, where I’m clear on what I want and take action. And, of course, have another wonderful year with my sweet, silly and playful kitty.
That’s me!
[T] Yup, that’s you.
That’s a real nice wish, Mama. May I make a suggestion?
[T] Sure.
Could you also wish that Santa Kitty Klaus brings me all the things on my wish list? And maybe ask him to overlook any potential naughtiness from today? I will be on my very best behavior going forward. I swear!
[T] Okay. If you promise to be a good kitty from now on … I’ll put in a good word with Santa Kitty Klaus on your behalf.
Thanks, Mama! YAWN. I’m tired now, so I’m going to take a nice long nap and dream about the presents I’m going to get for being such a swell cat. Can you finish your post by yourself?
[T] Thanks for all your help and enjoy your nap, MaxE. I hope you catch a birdie in your dreams. And to all of you—I hope Santa makes your dreams and wishes come true too.
